And you have the option to display the poll results as a pie chart.

@Rex feel like there also needs to be a "react" option with different emojis like the thumbs up, laughing face, angry face etc etc

Oh yeah and way more emojis like seriously friggin cool emojis and if you get nitro you can post way more and you can react to posts with the different emojis wouldn't that be so cool

A reaction option like you said would be very counterproductive to a forum seeking actual discussion.

Pooooop

@Rex Why not use Strawpoll instead?

@Lovesickhs18
Would be nice not to visit a third party site just to engage in a feature found in most forum software.

@Rex I disagree, I think it could be useful. For example a recommendation with many thumbs up could be thought of as higher quality. Or a shitpost could be identified by lots of laugh reacts

And we could react with a milk emoji if someone makes a seriously milk post

I think users being able to make these judgements on their own is far more important than implementing a system so that those who can’t would understand.
